The 2301s are a very, very fine option - I heard the combo at Ivan's - but the Accuphase amps do add that last bit of refinement...

Yes, that’s definitely a possibility. I just don’t have the same amount of experience with Accuphase that I do with McIntosh so I don’t know how the preamp section of the E-650 rates by itself. Although, I think it’s safe to say that it’s no slouch.
